“Highly recommend!! Kelvin and Monica, thank you so much for taking care of our precious Cupcake while we were in town visiting! It was a last minute request and you went above and beyond with being flexible when our schedule changed throughout the day.”
“Melissa and her entire family were great. Our highly energetic Australian Shepherd had a wonderful stay. Melissa sent us updates including pictures and videos. Bailey was walked and had play time with several other dogs. We had great confidence in leaving our dog with Melissa and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care.”
“Brittny is great! Digby felt right at home and he loved playing with her kids and their dog Benji for hours and hours in their huge yard! She sent great happy photos over the weekend, and is easy to work with around pick up and drop off. We are so happy we found this loving family.”
“This was the first time we used Rover and Jennifer. Our experience with both was great. Jennifer was so caring and Judge had a great time while there. We would definitely use her again and recommend her as well.”
“A very honest review: Celeste is absolutely wonderful. I am military and I had to leave on a mission overseas last minute, and she accommodated my needs and my dog’s needs for an extended stay. I will definitely use her services again, she’s a wonderful pet sitter, she’s very communicative and sent me pictures of my dog and an update daily while I was overseas. Her and her family all love pets and are very caring, this shows as my dog gets very excited to see her, her family, and her pets. She treated my dog as if it was her own.”
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was little. We had a German Shepherd and Boxer before having my kids. Now I am a dog Mom to a 10 year old Maltipoo who we love so much. I only take one client at a time I work from home full-time, so I’m always around to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, your furry friend will never feel alone. I have a safe, fenced yard where they can play and stretch their legs and also have great company, my friendly Maltipoo, who loves making new furry friends ☺️

“Highest review I can give for any sitter is that Cathy is like me.... She is a dog person. She gets dogs, she loves dogs, they are always a part of her life. When you're looking for a sitter you are looking for someone you can trust, that's Cathy.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Mahwah on Rover is $56.89 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 13,139 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mahwah. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Mahwah sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Mahwah landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Mahwah home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Mahwah.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Mahwah sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
